For people who are severely depressed, their Wonderland looks different. They are pushed down the rabbit hole unwillingly, dragged down by the actions and words of those around us. Once they reach the bottom, they find a room with a container of bleach with a little tag reading "Drink Me". To the side they see a cupcake imbedded with razor blades topped poison green icing labeled "Eat Me". Even if they refuse the items of food offered to them, they will be shrunk, along with their self-confidence and feelings of self-worth. Once they walk through the door, they trek through the gloomy forest of despair and sorrow. They meet the Cheshire Cat, perched upon a branch of leafless tree. (To Be Continued)

We are at our very best, and we are happiest, when we are fully engaged in work we enjoy on the journey toward the goal we've established for ourselves. It gives meaning to our time off and comfort to our sleep. It makes everything else in life so wonderful, so worthwhile. ~Earl Nightingale

When you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy. When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.~Khalil Gibran

Unconditional love really exists in each of us. It is part of our deep inner being. It is not so much an active emotion as a state of being. It's not 'I love you' for this or that reason, not 'I love you if you love me.' It's love for no reason, love without an object.~Ram Dass

There is pleasure in the pathless woods, there is rapture in the lonely shore, there is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar; I love not Man the less, but Nature more.~Lord Byron

When you see nothing to live for, you are just blinded by your sorrow or pain, you can't see passed how bad living is at that moment, but there is something to live for, there is always something to live for, no matter what, there is a reason to keep going on.
